How cute is this? My mom and her sister took a roadtrip from Santa Barbara to Northern California to visit my cousin, then to Portland to meet up with their other sister, then to Victoria, Canada, to visit their aunt and uncle, and then to Seattle to see me!
Nothing like sister-bonding on the road.
Reminds me of this video Sister #2 and I made in January.
My
mom is one in a million, but boy does she have a sweet tooth. And that's fine
for her, because throughout most of my life, she's weighed significantly less
than me. Props to her.
That
being said, we rocked Seattle in true dessert-lovers fashion, and I joined a
gym the day she left. :)
Top
Pot Donuts • Macrena Bakery • Mighty-O Donuts • Zoka • Molly Moon's Ice Cream
And
no, that list is not all-inclusive.
We
also marched all over Seattle, and it was awesome feeling like I finally live
here and have earned the right to 'show people my city.'
Nordstrom
Anniversary sale, antique-shopping down town, thrift store shopping on Capitol
Hill, sightseeing all the famous parks and lookouts (Gas Works, Kerry...).
They
even let me have an hour alone to watch the finale of Friday Night Lights. Took me a while to pull myself together after
that one. If you're missing it already, watch this little "best of" highlights video.
It
includes my two favorite lines (just humor me):
Tyra: "I have dreams, Tim."
Tim: "I know you do. I have dreams too...maybe one day our dreams can merge together."

Eric to Tami: "I wanna go to Philadelphia. Will you take me to Philadelphia with you, please?"
